Let's Party..

We decided to celebrate Carson's birthday on Saturday rather than Sunday. Easier for friends and family, and with Fathers day and all. So we had big plans for an outside party with all his little cousins and a few neighborhood friends and what does it do? Rain, rain, and more rain. What is with this June, making me crazy. Here comes the sunshine this week though, I hope anyways. So we moved the party down in to our basement. Luckily, my basement is in pretty good order so we just slid a couple of things over and made room for his decorations and games.


The set-up.


The help.


The prizes.


First we had a little fish pond for the kids.


Then onto a little stick the nose on the lion kinda game.


Ring toss.


Carson got a lot of great toys from his friends. Piano, squirt gun, helmet, batman cape and belt, truck, chalk spray painter, all kinds of things.


Thiago and I got him this new spiderman bike as one of his presents. He loves it, so far he has only rode it down in the basement. However, as soon as his dad gets home tonight they are going to head outside.


Servin up a little brownie icecream sundaes. Yum!


Little brother slept through most of the party, but joined us downstairs for the last half hour.



And of course a pinata. What is a party without a pinata, right?


Some of our little jungle friends.



We rested and cleaned up after our little friend party and then met up with family at Red Robin. I was so sad cause Thiago's whole family decided to stay in Brazil longer than they had originally planned. Soooo, none of them were there. Oh well, there is always next year I guess.




We then went back to our house for cake and icecream. It was a great day and I think Carson really enjoyed it. He loves being the center of attention and enjoyed every minute of it. I was exhausted when all was said and done, but his little smile makes it all worth it. Thanks to all my family for being there and always supporting my little guy. We love you all so much and our so grateful to have you!
